EXIF data has also been removed. Plus, of course, those previous too prior to this lot. Edited by: Paul Hilton at:6th February 2010 16:05 |

Great job exposing this photo thief! It will be interesting to see how long the POE photos remain on robhood's page once complaints are sent to the host website. I suspect that most of those photos have been lifted from other websites as well. |

Can any one put me right on this? |

He has nicked some of mine too - think that's why he is calling himself "Rob Hood" after Robin Hood or Robbin something else!!! By the way Chris & Sarah - I wasn't impressed with that site at all - I got bored even looking for my own photos! Our POE is far superior!!! |

In the last few days we have come across what I would describe as two bad internet apples, Noddy and Rob Hood, could they be brothers I wonder. Love to all my POE friends I look forward to continuing a mutually rewarding relationship |
